Nonprofit climate tech investor, Hawai‘i-based Elemental Excelerator, has announced plans to infuse up to $43 million into climate tech startups focused on social impact.

Elemental is accepting applications for its Cohort 12 and will increase funding by $5 million for this cohort to a total of $13 million overall, with admission on a rolling basis. It is also offering an additional $30 million in catalytic project funding for three to six projects with a community impact, bringing the total across its cohort and this new catalytic funding to $43 million total.

“It is more critical than ever to scale up technologies like clean drinking water, wildfire reforestation and pollution reduction from trucks near ports,” Elemental Excelerator founder and CEO Dawn Lippert said. “Elemental is building a robust pipeline of projects that will soon be ready for later-stage private investors and unprecedented federal funding opportunities.”
